ZERO-DEFECT UNIVERSE

orders phenomena in the non-human world is completely zero-defect. In contrast, human management is necessarily flawed, in some way or the other. From various verses of the Quran we gain inspiration to reflect on the difference between the two. This comparative study tells us there is a basic difference between them. In the human world, despite all our efforts there is and can be no zero-defect management. It is simply impossible. In contrast, in the natural world established and managed by God, zero-defect management prevails fully and throughout, and with complete accuracy. When we reflect on this difference, we realize that there is a Creator of this universe who is All-Powerful and Perfect. The difference between man’s world and the physical world, the world of the exact sciences, is a firm proof of God’s existence. As the Quran (67: 3-4) tells us: He created seven heavens one above the other in layers. You will not find any flaw in the creation of the Gracious One. Then look once again: can you see any flaw? Then look again and again. Your gaze will come back to you confused and exhausted. Elsewhere, the Quran (50: 6) says: Have they not observed the sky above them and marked how We have built it and adorned it, leaving no flaws in it? This modern discovery of the system of the universe being flawless is proving one attribute of God to be true, and that is, in the words of the Quran: “God: there is no deity save Him, the Living, the Eternal One. Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him.” (2: 255) o The highest spiritual goal for man is his spiritual uplift when he has attained the high state called "peaceful soul" in the Quran. This may also be termed as complexfree soul which can withstand all kinds of negativity.
